So when we had the first past the post system are you telling us the best team didn't win the league every season?

its fair enough bud, he should have never been moved from hooker.
i am actually glad we didn't offer him a equal or greater deal if he can get sl rugby its better than playing reserves. the potential fee could have put other clubs off.

Sometimes they dont do they. The team that wins isnt always the best team, they just pick up more points. When we won 13 games on the bounce the other year we only played well in 2 of those games. I would therefore argue that even though we got to the GF we weren't the 2nd best team in the league. We just had other things that went for us such as luck etc.

No guarantee he'll get SL rugby with Rovers.

no theres not but he'll have a better chance, especailly with hkr only having 2 reconised hookers.

So you don't think Celtic, Salford and Hull FC have been the worst teams overall this season? Who has been worse, overall?
And if picking up 2 points isn't the only thing that matter, what else does? The Fair Play index?

However, i think it is fair to say that in the vast majority of cases that wouldnt be the end result. Common sence tells you that if a player isnt good enough for a bottom 3 side then the chances are he wont be good enough for a top 4 side.

I would imagine Rovers are still in the market for a new hooker however the fact that Hodgson was moved to the back row at Hull probably swayed his decision more then guarenteed 1st team rugby.
The one thing Rovers seem to have guarenteed Josh is the hooking role be it reserve level or 1st team and you cant blame the kid for wanting to play in his favoured position.

When did i right off all 75 players? Show me.
I am righting off (if that is the right term) the majority of players RELEASED from bottom 3 sides.
